Montgomery County FD / EMS

[Albert13]

I've noticed that the dispatching agency (NRV 911 Authority) for Montgomery County has stopped dispatching out fire and ems services on the frequencies listed on RadioReference.com. I know NRV 911 Authority had eventually planned on moving from VHF to UHF but I don't believe they have started this process yet. Does anyone have anymore information on this?

There have been some changes to the frequencies and the way some of the agencies are dispatched. All agencies with the exception of Virginia Tech Rescue, Blacksburg Rescue and Blacksburg Fire (they are being dispatched the same way as they have been) are being dispatched initially on the same frequency which is now called Fire Rescue 1 (156.165 which is the old Shawsville Rescue channel). Once enroute, they will then be told to go to another channel for the incident (either South 3, South 5, South 7, South 9 or South 11). I'm assuming the even channels (ie. South 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10) are talkaround channels. I do not know what the South channels frequencies are currently, but will post to the database as soon as I do. I don't know if they are reverting back to VHF or staying with UHF currently.
